If you ever met someone like Archibald, you wouldn't exactly be in the wrong for hating him. Archibald was a very annoying, over dramatic, stubborn, and big headed punk. He always nagged everyone until he got what he wanted out of them, and if anything happened to him he would make a scene and over react to everything. He always had to be right, no one would ever be able to convince him that he was wrong, and he thought that he was untouchable, and above everybody else. Oddly enough, no one acted like they hated him, because they didn't want to have to deal with whatever he would do to them. That all ended one day when someone had an idea. This man thought that if everyone who hated him (which was everyone that knew Archibald) expressed their hatred for him, he would be outnumbered and unable to do anything in the shocked state that would put him in. So one day after work at the Kluczynski Federal Building in Chicago, they all confronted poor old Archie and told him how they felt about him. He was so surprised, that he had no idea what to do. He could play it off like they were joking, accept their hatred, hate them back, change his terrible ways, and many other options. All these different paths would lead to different outcomes, and Archie didn't really like any of these choices. He went home that night and laid in his bed, pondering what to do. He finally came to a conclusion just before sleep took over, and stuck to it. The next day, right before work started, he called everyone up on the roof for an announcement. Archie told everyone how sorry he was for being such an annoyance to them, and that he really just hoped that he could be friends with them all. After stating this however, he said that he knew that wouldn't be possible, so Archie jumped off the building falling 562 feet. Everyone was sure that he was dead, no one can survive that drop. They all mourned over his death because they knew that they were responsible, and felt terrible. Little did they know that Archibald had survived however. He was a world class stunt man and had prepared a secret hidden cushion to soften the drop. No one knew that he was still alive and had moved to Canada to start a new life with his new name Reginald, for that was his plan all along. Archibald was going to take revenge by seemingly killing himself and making all of his enemies feel guilt and suffering, while he moves on to a brand new and better life with satisfaction in his success.
